SDS: Can we please have feedback for starters brought in relief?

SDS

I understand you guys are working on other aspects of the game right now and I appreciate that. But could we please get some feedback in regards to how people are using starters as relievers?

The way people are using this strategy can’t be what was intended. I think a large majority would agree that if this was addressed it would help Ranked Seasons a lot.

So I’m not expecting an immediate fix, it would just be nice to know that you guys are working on a resolution to this issue. Whether it’s eliminating the option, increasing energy loss on starters, slowing recovery rate between games, etc.

Thank you

Easily fixed by modifying the stamina lost and the rate it’s regained as a reliever. Pitchers with high durability lose and regain stamina at an unreasonable rate. I like the concept, I’d like it to stay, particularly as we see more MLB teams using openers, but the execution needs to be better.

I agree. I think it’s a great way to add more strategy into this mode. Just needs some adjustments.

I’ve heard that if you bring in kluber in relief for less than 2 innings he actually gains stamina for the next game. I wish I was joking

I can believe it. The rate they regain energy is pretty crazy. So only burning a little would be cancelled out (and more) just from the large gain of energy after the game.

With that being said you could realistically pitch him every game with no penalty
